Host and Location: This is a terrific value hostel option in Bangkok. Being pretty close to Sukhumvit Rd and the Phra Khanong BTS station (15 minute walk), this is best for solo travellers or a group of younger travellers. Saroth is very responsive and his sister is very helpful, polite and was always very friendly to us. There is a small cafe downstairs which is managed by the host. You get espresso, cappuccino, brewed coffee, and juice as well as scoops of ice cream when you need to cool off at the end of the day. There are several Seven Eleven stores within 3 minute, 10 minute and 15 minute walk from the hostel. There is a coffee shop, a local night food market, an upscale food square for alcohol and night food etc all within a 15 minute walk. You can spend the money you saved from staying at the hostel on beer. I think that this street in particular is also very safe due to the residential side streets and the Main Street businesses, and the foot traffic. I'd have no problem walking alone at night. Transport: As far as transport is concerned, if you are not prepared to walk to the BTS station, there are "minivans" (Read Modified Tuk-Tuk) that drop you at the Phra Khanong ("Pruh Kuh-Non") BTS station for Seven bahts. From there, you can go to Siam, Asok, Mo Chit, Chit Lom stations where there are malls, food streets, markets etc. Pier 21 food court is by the Asok BTS. Siam is at Siam BTS. From Phra Khanong to Siam, the BTS ride cost me 90 bahts round trip. From the hostel to Siam paragon during lunch hour, I paid close to 230 bahts for an Uber. The traffic in Bangkok in rush hour is dreadful. So, it's best to take the BTS to a more central station and take a cab from there instead. The Rooms and premises: The rooms are air conditioned, and are kept very clean. The AC units are very powerful and kept us cool in Bangkok heat. Room 401 directly faces the main road. Therefore, at night, there will be a lot of noise from the passing vehicles and whenever a giant truck passes by, you feel the vibrations in your bed. For sound sleepers, this may not be a problem. For light sleepers, the rooms on the side of the house may be better. All the bathrooms are very clean and sanitised frequently. The hallways are not air conditioned, so you won't be spending much time there. The second floor has a lounge where you can do some work or access the computer if required. There is a fan there but no air conditioner.The showers are located on 3rd and 5th floors. Since there is no elevator, you must take the stairs to go to the shower if you are staying on the 4th floor. Rules: - Lobby closes at 8pm. You must enter or exit through the...
